Wow, a whole year? That is a very long time. But a understandable one at the same time when you consider how many people playing poker who will actually be participating in it by playing, the number of people watching it would surely have to be pretty high as well. 694 players in the final stage to start off with is a whole heap of poker players by any standards, indicated also by the fact that it broke a record for the history of the France Poker Tour. Those players who managed to make their way to the final by winning in free online poker tournaments are certainly very lucky, i wish that i could find a tournament like that but unfortunately i am just not lucky enough to manage to do something like that, as much as i wish that i could.

Sometimes if you want the best of things you have to be patient in order to get them, i guess that is the best way to be thinking about it when it comes down to how long this tournament has been going on for, it was a long time but no doubt it’s worth it, very worth it. And to anyone that really was an avid poker player and fan i do not think that they would mind being in a tournament for that amount of time. If it were me i would actually be pretty proud of myself for being able to last it out in a tournament as large as that with that many other players competing against me for that long of a amount of time. Not many people could boast that they can last that long and out play that many players in a poker tournament, me included lol.

Amazing that out of so many people playing in the tournament, 634 to be precise to my knowledge from reading the article, there will only be 63 of them who will be rewarded in the end, around just ten percent, not very much at all when you think about it but i guess that many people is better than the ones where they just have one or two winners who come out on top in the end. The money that is up for grabs for those who do manage to take one of those 63 places would also be a nice amount of cash to have for playing a game that you are good at and enjoy playing and is nothing to be turning their noses up at either,

Those are some very well known and very big names in the poker industry that we see will be taking part in the tournament, i can see why they will be rewarding sixty three people with names like that in the tournament, there is no way that people would really have a chance against all those kinds of names so it is kind of only fair that they offer it to more people than just one or two, give the little lesser known players a chance to win and make a name for themselves as well instead of just the usual big names in poker. These guys and girls must be really good at their game to be able to get to a level where they can compete against the great names in poker, will be a great event to see.

It will be good to see just what will happen when new comers and little known players make it to the end and face off against the poker champions and well known poker identities, I wonder if we will discover some new poker championship title worth players in this tournament or will we be disappoineted for only see the already established and famous players win their places at the end? Well i do not think that this is likely, i think that we will not be disappointed no matter what the outcome, it will be good no matter what you are looking for in it all. I can’t wait to see the end of it, i love poker tournaments and the French poker has only recently really started to take off and get the recognition that it deserves.
